Hi,

I have a SL-5310 turntable that belonged to my dad. i would like to know if i can still get needles for that model. can anyone help me?

I believe the 5310 is a black 5300. The manuals are here:

You have a vast choice of stereo cartridges that will work on that turntable.
If you just want to replace the stylus on the cartridge that is on it, you have to know what mpdel it is.

Cheers,

yes. it´s the black 5300. i haven´t used it since i was a kid and listened to my father records. so i actually don`t know how it works. i will take it to service but i wanted to know if cartridges where still available because i can´t find them in Perú.

Thanks!

Cartridges:

Any standard 1/2 inch mount cartridge will fit.
You will need an amplifier with a phono pre-amp, or you can get a separate phono pre-amp that will feed any amplifier.

Hi Alec. Thank you so much for your help. The cartridge that is on the turntable now is a ATN 70L.
I have the original amplifier that came with the turntable. Actually my dad had the amplifier, the equalizer, the speakers, radio and the cassette player. Everything works fine so I hope once I replace the cartridge, the turntable is going to work as well.

Thanks again. Daniela.

Audio Technica AT95E should be an improvement.
